What is Creative Partnerships?
Creative Partnerships is the Government’s flagship creativity programme for schools and young people, managed by Arts Council England and funded by the DCSF and DCMS. It aims to develop:
· the creativity of young people, raising their aspirations and achievements
· the skills of teachers and their ability to work with creative practitioners
· schools' approaches to culture, creativity and partnership working; and
· the skills, capacity and sustainability of the creative industries
The programme achieves its aims by nurturing the creativity of learners and educators, and developing creative approaches to teaching all aspects of the curriculum.
Creative Partnerships enables head teachers to realise their personal vision for a school, freeing them up to innovate and succeed. It encourages an approach designed around the needs of the individual school with learning tailored to the needs and aspirations of each child.
Creative Partnerships enables schools to work with creative practitioners to develop a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum. It does so by supporting a range of creative practitioners to work in partnership with schools in long term sustained relationships.
